On Sunday, June 9th at 10 am, the Gilford Community Church Choir will be joined by a 15-piece orchestra and present Heather Sorenson's Requiem. The piece is dedicated to the GCC choir members we have lost.
“I chose the piece because even though it's a requiem (a mass for the dead) it still has lots of moments of hope and joy to reflect the time we have in rehearsal, and the friendships we maintain through singing in choir”, said AJ Coppola, GCC’s Music and Choir Director.
The Requiem will be performed as part of the church service, “we'll be taking over the Sunday so it will mostly be the requiem that day”, added Coppola.
The choir has been working on the piece since January and will perform as part of our regular Sunday service, therefore, is a free event.
